Music, reading, writing, forensics, psychology, Japanese, law, singing, sewing, clothing, vinyl, corsets, chocolate, running, working out, studying.

Law and Order, CSI, NCIS, Courage the Cowardly Dog, Star Trek and stand up comics on Comedy Central.
So many. The works of the Marquis de Sade, St. Francis de Sales. And if that doesn't serve as a perfect example of how far across the board my interests run, nothing will.
Heroes are subjective. My heroes are the people in my life who have helped me to grow. Probably more than they even realize. In no particular order: Charlie Drown, Tasha, Cerelia, Erica, Helen Oesterle - and many others who have been only passing in my life, along with those I haven't met yet.
